Why are there now two payment options?

When attempting to make a payment in CASHNet, you may notice that there are now two different payment options:

UCI General Payment

UCI General Housing Payment

The UCI General Payment should be used by students to make payments for registration fees, lab fees etc., and the UCI General Housing Payment is for Housing Only.

These new payment options will not show up for all students. They will only show up for students who have financial aid that cannot be applied to a charge, e.g. if they don’t have the minimum required units or if they have an outstanding charge for the previous year to which financial aid cannot be applied.

In addition, students who do not have any open charges will no longer see the message: “Your account does not currently have any outstanding charges." Instead, they will see “Check your ZOT Account Online for unpaid charges. If your account has charges that cannot be paid by your credit balance, click the "Enter Amount You Wish to Pay" button to make your payment."

I'm having trouble using the system. May I send a check instead?

Absolutely! If you'd prefer to send a check, please include the student’s 8-digit UCI Student ID# on the face of the check. The UCI Cashier's Office address is:
